Drinks & Nightlife
Some personal hidden favorites and hidden gems to keep you up at night!
(Wrigleyville) I am the talent buyer for Houndstooth and their Friday Night Live Music is unreal and their drinks specials are crazy cheap! I'll let the bartenders know you're coming and they'll treat you right. This also is the first bar along the Wrigleyville "strip", so if you want to bar hop, it's the perfect start!

Food Scene
My favorite places to eat near the apartment and my favorite neighborhoods! (Vegetarian/Pesceterian & Vegan Focused!)
(Wrigleyville/Boystown/Lakeview) This place makes the most inventive pizzas with super fun staff! Vegan options are outrageous and the clever seasonal changes get us coming back constantly! Open super late and sells by the slice! (Much cheaper to get a whole pie, though.)
